Infusion Therapy

What is Infusion Therapy?

Infusion therapy involves an intravenous (IV) dose of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and anti-inflammatories, amino acids and other nutrients. Dr. Karney will custom-design a program specifically for YOU, to help you meet your health needs, whether they are reparative or preventative in nature.

Advantages of Infusion Therapy

Infusion Therapy (IV) has been proven to be one of the most effective ways to improve many health conditions.

What makes Infusion Therapy so effective?

Nutrients delivered directly to cells through the bloodstream

With IV nutrient therapy, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are circulated through your bloodstream and directly delivered to cells, where they are immediately available for use. There’s no waiting for the nutrients to clear the digestive system and the liver. This is particularly effective for those with inflamed intestines, where absorption of oral supplements may be limited.

Fewer side effects

IV vitamin therapy bypasses the stomach and intestines, therefore much higher doses are possible than if oral therapy is used. With oral supplementation, dose is often limited by side effects of upset stomach and intestinal cramping.

Research has shown that there are specific blood or tissue concentrations of certain nutrients that must be achieved in order for them to be pharmacologically active. Vitamin C is a good example of such a nutrient. Numerous studies show high concentrations of Vitamin C are required in the serum and intracellular fluid before it can exert its beneficial effects. These high concentrations simply cannot be achieved by taking the Vitamin C orally.
